U.S. Marine Corps Sgt. Maj. John S. Studer, senior enlisted leader, Marine Artillery Detachment, Ft. Sill, Oklahoma, offers condolences to the family of Pearl Harbor veteran Pfc. Charles R. Taylor at Carnegie Cemetery in Carnegie, Oklahoma, Dec. 7, 2023. Taylor was assigned to the Marine Detachment aboard the battleship USS Oklahoma in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, on Dec. 7, 1941, when Japanese aircraft attacked the ship with multiple torpedo hits, causing it to quickly capsize. Following the attack, Taylor was listed as Missing in Action until July 26, 2021, when the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency successfully recovered and identified Taylor’s remains. Taylor was laid to rest on the 82nd Anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor with full military honors supported by Marines assigned to the Marine Artillery Detachment.
